I can't remember him taking the li me on much in attack in the Widnes half

After initial promise on his return from injury he has quickly gone down hill.

On current form the worst 1 in SL.

If he isn't fit he shouldn't be playing. Stopping and sometimes reversing away from contact is a bizarre and sad sight from such a talented player before his injury.

ive never seen a player of such talent seemingly become so bad overnight.

he is your highest payed player.... but in all honesty, the young fullback coming through the ranks HAS to be better (whoever it is)

Some massive overreactions on here hahaha. The worst 1 in SL hahahahaha give me a break.

With a full pre-season behind him and a more confidence in his knee, he'll be a different player next season

It isn't an overreaction. His form over the last 3 or 4 games has in my opinion been the worst I have seen in SL.

His injury is clearly an issue I accept that and I hope you are right in relation to an offseason helping the situation and I think you may be right, non the less that does not excuse his current performance and selection.

If he isn't recovered he should not be playing. If this is him recovered, which I don't think it is, and the money he is taking on the cap, God help us!

why is it when players have there hair dyed blonde they turn in an utterley e performance.

Didn't Leeds do it a couple of years ago (the whole team) and they were tripe?

you have some very good players, Tompkins isn't one of them, atm he is bang average and that's being kind, imo he shouldn't be anywhere near the England team, but he will be, he just passes the ball, he is not a threat with ball in hand and defensively is poor, plus hes lost his pace, sorry but hes not the player he was, maybe a good of season might see him improve but atm hes poor

No, if iirc it was pink, but yes they were shi.. , err tripe

He may be better next year after a full pre season, but I'm not sure now myself. Something is missing. Not sure he's loving it anymore. Spends way way too much time in the referees ear. Just too busy thinking about what to say next rather than thinking about the game he's in. It's a shame what's happened to the lad. Used to be the best in the game. Now he's not even the best in SL. He needs to re-focus, stop being a prima Donna, get a good pre season in and just play the game.

Taking into account him missing games, statwise Sam T is the worse full back in super league for clean breaks and is average metre gain is very poor. I don't recall him beating the first man into the tackle on a regular basis, seems to be more concerned on how he is being tackled and defence wise he's all over the place. Next season could make or break him as he struggles to escape from his own shadow.

Feck off you moron.

Nice reply. If you can't see how bad Tomkins is atm you really shouldn't be calling anyone a moron unless you're standing in front of a mirror. On this form he's miles from an England call up and barely worth a Wigan jumper. I really hope he's carrying an injury because if he thinks what he is offering up now is good enough for such a high earner he is deluded.

I think we can all see how poor his form is however singling him out isn't going to help is it? And he's hardly all over the place defensively. In fact defensively we are pretty much sound (barring a few errors). Nearly every player is in garbage form, especially senior players. Lockers has had his worst season probably ever, Smith can't pass accurately or make a break and we have a set of forwards who go sideways more then forwards and barely ever put their hand up to carry on our own half. I won't even begin to talk about any of them making even a half break (Bateman excluded) or running off the ball.
